@ Rain Group has diversified its end markets with entry into Coal Tar distillation business through the acquisition of Belgium based Ruetgers Group ("Ruetgers") on January 4, 2013. Ruetgers is Europe's leading and world's second largest Coal Tar distiller and is a leading producer of Coal Tar Pitch ("CTP" or "Pitch") along with other co-products including Naphthalene Oil, Aromatic Oils and other Carbon Chemicals.With eight operating facilities spread across North America and Europe, Ruetgers currently has more than a million tons of Coal Tar distillation capacity. The ninth facility, a Joint Venture in Russia with about 300,000 tons of coal tar distillation capacity is under construction.

38th Annual Report 2012

RAIN COMMODITIES LIMITED


Acquisition Rationale We envisage the Acquisition to significantly expand our operations and diversify both our geographic footprint and product portfolio without diverging from our core business. Expanding into the Coal Tar distillation business is complementary to our Calcining operations, as Rain Group and Ruetgers share the same underlying business model of converting a by-product into a value added product for the Aluminum industry. The likely key benefits of the Acquisition include the following: We believe our increased scale of operations and strengthened cash flows will create an improved platform from which to capitalize on growth opportunities in the global market. These opportunities include leveraging our complementary customer bases to cross-sell our CPC and CTP products. We expect our broader and more diversified geographic footprint and product portfolio to help the combined company deliver more stable financial performance. We expect to leverage the technological capabilities of both Rain Group's and Ruetgers' research and development organizations.This includes facilitating lower cost CPC and CTP combinations for the customers.We expect the combined company to have greater flexibility to commercialize Rain Group's patented ICE technology to utilize lower cost coke inputs in CPC blends, while maintaining competitive performance characteristics for our customers.We also expect the combined company to use Ruetgers developed CARBORES technology to maximize anode quality advancement. Ruetgers' CARBORES technology is an environment friendly Pitch binder which produces less emission than traditional Pitch binders and that has the potential to be used in the Aluminum industry as it exhibits the capability to increase Aluminum output and improve utilization rates of Aluminum smelters. Competitive Strengths of the Combined Entity Global leader in essential Carbon products for the Aluminum industry We intend the combined company to become a leading carbon supplier to the Aluminum industry with significant operating scale. Rain Group is a leading producer of CPC with Global market share of about 8% and Ruetgers is currently the second largest Coal Tar distiller with Global market share of about 8%. Additional Coal Tar distillation capacity is expected to become available during 2014 through the Russian JV. We expect the combined company to be able to manage the entire Carbon Anode supply chain, providing Aluminum customers the access to meet all their Carbon needs, including enhanced inventory management, via a single supplier. As a result of the expected global scale of the combined company, long-standing supplier and customer relationships, production resources, application know-how and expertise in complying with industry regulatory requirements, we believe we will be well positioned to maintain our industry-leading position. Longstanding relationships with global customers Rain Group and Ruetgers have a complementary Global Aluminum customer base which includes companies such as Alcoa, Rio Tinto Alcan, Norsk Hydro ASA, Century Aluminum and Aluminerie Alouette Inc., BHP Billiton, National Aluminium Company Limited, Vedanta Aluminum Limited, etc. Further, both Rain Group and Ruetgers have maintained relationships with many of their customers for over 15 years on average. We intend to work closely with our customers to improve existing products and develop new products and processes to reduce costs for both the combined company and our customers.

38th Annual Report 2012

RAIN COMMODITIES LIMITED


Favorable industry fundamentals supported by Aluminum production growth Approximately 77% of all CPC produced across the World and approximately 80% of all CTP produced across the World is sold to primary Aluminum producers. As such, primary Aluminum production is the most important determinant of CPC and CTP demand. While both CPC and CTP are critical inputs for Aluminum production, as no known economically viable substitutes exist, they remain a small portion of an Aluminum smelter's costs. World production of primary Aluminum totaled approximately 47.1 million metric tons in 2012 and is expected to grow to approximately 59.6 million metric tons by 2016, representing a compounded annual growth rate ('CAGR') of 6.1%. The growth in the demand for Aluminum is expected to be driven by increasing use of light-weight materials in many key industries such as transportation, construction, packaging and consumer electronics. Annual demand for CPC is expected to grow from approximately 25.9 million metric tons in 2012 to approximately 34.5 million metric tons in 2016, representing a (CAGR) of 7.4%. Similarly Annual CTP demand is expected to grow from approximately 6.3 million tons in 2012 to approximately 7.8 million tons in 2016, representing a CAGR of 5.5%. We believe the combined company is well positioned to capitalize on strong industry fundamentals given its leading position in the market. Long-term contracted raw material supply-a key barrier to entry In both CPC and CTP industries, secure access to raw materials is a key competitive advantage. Given the expectation for a continued tightening in the worldwide supply of traditional Anode Grade GPC and Coal Tar, we believe it would be difficult for a new entrant to get secure supply of these critical raw materials. Both Rain Group and Ruetgers enjoy long-standing relationships with many of their respective suppliers. We believe that the close proximity of our calcining facilities to suppliers minimizes freight costs and provides a significant competitive advantage. In addition,we believe that we have maintained strong relationships with our refining partners regardless of contract duration, resulting in repeated contract renewals over many years. More than 90% of Ruetgers' Coal Tar supply is based on long-standing framework contracts and its relationships with most of its suppliers exceed 10 years. Ruetgers recently expanded its Coal Tar supply base by establishing the Russian JV. The secure access to high quality GPC and Coal Tar through long-term relationships provides us with a relatively stable source of raw materials to serve our customers reliably. Diversified geographic profile with advantaged freight and transport logistics The combined company will have an extensive global footprint, with 17 production facilities located in Belgium, Canada, China, Germany, India, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia (from 2014 through the Joint Venture with Severstal) and the United States, inorder to serve our customers, we maintain extensive logistics and transportation networks. Rain Group's facilities operate in locations that provide favorable and efficient sourcing of GPC, with two facilities located adjacent to crude oil refineries. Our facilities are designed to further reduce transportation and logistics costs. Rain Group has dedicated vessel loading stations at three different facilities in Louisiana, USA. Ruetgers operates a fleet of specialty rail cars and a fully-leased fleet of specialty vessels for deep sea and inland water transportation, which increases its ability to source coal tar and supply its products globally. Increased product and market diversification We expect the combined company to be more diversified across end markets. While the Aluminum industry will remain the primary end market for the combined company, with CPC and CTP sales together representing major portion of the revenues, our product offering will be diversified into other products such as energy, resins and modifiers, aromatic chemicals and superplasticizers. CPC and CTP prices are dependent on the demand dynamics of the Aluminum

38th Annual Report 2012

RAIN COMMODITIES LIMITED


industry, while prices of resins and modifiers, super-plasticizers and other chemicals are driven primarily by broader macro-economic conditions. We expect these additional products will help mitigate our exposure to the Aluminum industry. Industry leader in proprietary product development and R&D capabilities We believe Rain Group's CPC business has led the industry in development efforts to utilize a wider range of GPC raw materials for use in Aluminum anodes. Alternative raw materials such as shot coke and other non-traditional anode cokes ("NTAC") are not only typically priced at a discount to traditional anode grade coke, but such NTACs are produced by more refineries resulting in adequate supply of NTAC for use by Aluminium smelters. Accordingly, we anticipate increasing commercial use of NTACs, as traditional anode grade GPC availability declines. Rain Group developed the patented ICE technology, jointly along with an Aluminum smelter, which allows us exclusive use of shot coke in anode blends. Shot coke is a very specific and distinctive type of NTAC. Rain Group is currently working with a major Aluminum smelting customer to carry-out a two year extended trial with this technology. Through selective investment, Ruetgers has developed flexible production facilities and processes that allow it to produce high quality CTP and down stream products. In addition to the flexibility of its facilities and production processes, Ruetgers' research and development team focuses on creating innovative products to meet its customers' evolving needs and to keep pace with industry standards and preferences. In particular, Ruetgers' CARBORES technology is an environmental friendly pitch binder, which produces lesser emissions upon use compared to certain alternative pitch binders and has the potential to be used in the Aluminum industry to improve anode performance and reduce anode production costs. We believe the combined company will be positioned to develop new, lower cost and more efficient combinations of coke and pitch for customers and create customized solutions. Experienced and proven management team The combined company will be led by an experienced management team with over 100 years of combined experience in the industry, and with average industry experience of senior management of over 15 years each. While Rain Group's management will oversee the combined company, Ruetgers' senior management team (which has an average of over 20 years of relevant experience) will remain in place to allow for a smooth integration of the two businesses.

OVERVIEW OF CARBON PRODUCTS BUSINESS Rain Commodities Limited, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is engaged in the business of production and sale of Calcined Petroleum Coke ("CPC"), Co-generation of Energy (Steam and/or Electricity) through Waste-heat recovery and trading of Fuel Grade Petroleum Coke. Rain Group is currently operating seven CPC plants in United States, one CPC plant each in India and China. With the total CPC capacity of about 2.4 million tons, Rain Group is one of the leading producers of CPC in the World with a Global market share of about 8%. Rain Group is well known for its ability to co-generate Energy from the waste heat recovered in the calcining process. Currently Rain Group is co-generating Energy at four of its CPC plants in the United States and one CPC plant in India. 371,189 58,746 95,983 15,564 21,046,248 380,242 61,895 149,908 9,379 (26,021) 17,010,242 December 31, 2012 53,614,485 11,755,669 3,727,632 8,028,037 1,199,682 6,828,355 2,180,220 4,648,135 (70,647) 4,577,488 17,010,242 21,587,730 December 31, 2011 56,395,150 13,657,564 2,455,560 11,202,004 1,129,391 10,072,613 3,425,533 6,647,080 (5,832) 6,641,248 10,944,397 17,585,645

In addition to the revenues generated from the sale of energy to third-parties, these co-generation facilities also reduce our energy costs and dependence on third party suppliers for sourcing electricity. Rain Group owns and operates dedicated deep-water vessel loading terminals at three of the CPC facilities (Lake Charles, Chalmette and Gramercy) and a barge dock at West Virginia CPC facility in the Unites States. Rain Group also operates two full-service petroleum coke laboratories. The Group has recorded net revenue of Rs. 44,356,811 (in thousands) from the Carbon Products Business during the financial year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to net revenue of Rs. 47,528,071 (in thousands) during the year ended December 31, 2011. Rain Group has diversified its end markets with entry into Coal Tar distillation business through the acquisition of Belgium based Ruetgers Group ("Ruetgers") on January 4, 2013. Ruetgers is Europe's leading and world's second largest Coal Tar distiller and is a leading producer of Coal Tar Pitch ("CTP" or "Pitch"). Ruetgers also produces other Chemicals, Resins, Modifiers and Superplasticizers by further processing carbon products through its down-stream operations. With eight operating facilities spread across North America and Europe, Ruetgers currently has more than a million tons of Coal Tar distillation capacity. The ninth facility, a Joint Venture in Russia with about 300,000 tons of coal tar distillation capacity is under construction and is expected to commence operations in CY 2014. OUTLOOK FOR CARBON PRODUCTS BUSINESS Calcined Petroleum Coke ("CPC") is produced from Green Petroleum Coke ("GPC"), a by-product of Crude Oil Refining process, through a process known as "Calcining" that removes moisture and volatile matter from GPC at high temperature. The key raw material for Ruetgers is Coal Tar, a by-product by Steel producers in the conversion process of Coal into Metallurgical Coke. Together, CPC and CTP comprise the critical component of Carbon Anodes used in the Aluminum smelting process. CPC and CTP are considered as essential materials for the Aluminum industry, as there are no known economically viable substitutes for these products. As per the recent industry reports, approximately 77% of the world's CPC production and 80% of the world's CTP production is used in the production of Carbon Anodes in the Aluminum Smelting Process. Demand for Aluminum is one of the most important determinants of CPC and CTP demand. World production of primary Aluminum totaled approximately 47.1 million metric tons in 2012 and is expected to grow to approximately 59.6 million metric tons by 2016, representing a compounded annual growth rate of 6.1%. The growth in the demand for Aluminum is expected to be driven by increasing use of light weight materials in many key industries such as transportation (including aerospace and automobiles), construction, packaging and consumer electronics. This demand growth is expected to be met through the addition of new Aluminum smelters, largely in Asia and the Middle East due to low cost structure in these regions, including low cost power, labor and raw materials. The performance of Rain Group, being one of the leading producers of CPC and CTP with operating facilities across Globe is expected to be reasonably strong in the medium term with the continued demand from the growing Aluminum industry and the long term relationship with Aluminum Smelters, Crude Oil Refineries and Steel Producers. OVERVIEW OF CEMENT BUSINESS Rain Commodities Limited, through its wholly owned subsidiary, is engaged in the business of production and sale of Cement. Rain Group is operating two fully integrated Cement plants in the state of Andhra Pradesh and one Fly Ash Handling and Cement Packing facility in the state of Karnataka. Rain Group through its vast chain of dealer network sells Cement, under the brand name "Priya Cement", in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Maharashtra OUTLOOK FOR CEMENT INDUSTRY The Indian Cement industry has witnessed massive capacity additions of approximately 100 million tons, CAGR of 13.6%, during FY 2009-2012, the growth in capacity addition is disproportionately high in South India. During the same period of FY 2009-2012, South Indian Cement Capacity has increased by approximately 55 million tons, representing a CAGR of 22.5%. This has resulted in significant pressure on price realization and also on capacity utilizations. Although the estimated capacity utilization, for FY 2012-2013, on Pan India basis is around 75% levels, South India's capacity utilization is estimated to fall below 60% level.

The increased thrust on infrastructure development by Government of India and the projected growth in the housing sector coupled with the increasing per capita income is expected to provide support to the Cement prices and hedge against the current oversupply situation. With the initiatives taken by the Government of India for infrastructure development coupled with many state elections in FY 2013 and central elections in FY 2014, Cement demand is expected to rise marginally during FY 2012-2014. The management expects that the supply demand gap would narrow down in next couple of years, as there are no major capacity expansions expected post FY 2013. Considering these market conditions and continued excess capacity in South India, the management continues to concentrate on controlling costs by improving the Cement to Clinker blend ratio and trying to improve the capacity utilization and blended realization by entering into new market regions in Karnataka and Maharashtra.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


A) CARBON PRODUCTS CPC INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT Calcined Petroleum Coke ("CPC") is produced from Green Petroleum Coke ("GPC"), a by-product of Crude Oil Refining process, through a process known as "Calcining" that removes moisture and volatile matter from the GPC at high temperature. CPC is produced in two primary forms, Anode Grade CPC for use in the Aluminum Smelting process (representing approximately 77% of Global CPC production) and Industrial Grade CPC for use in the manufacturing of Titanium Dioxide and other industrial applications (representing approximately 23% of Global CPC production). For every 10 tons of Aluminum, approximately 4 tons of CPC is consumed in the Aluminum production process. The World CPC production for 2012 is estimated to be about 26 million tons, China and US accounts for approximately 66% of the total World production. World CPC Production - 2012 Estimated of CPC pricing changes is determined by individual customer contracts and typically ranges between three to six months. CTP INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT Coal Tar is a liquid by-product produced by the Steel producers in the conversion process of Coal into Metallurgical Coke. During the production of Metallurgical Coke, known as "coking," 80% of the coal volume is processed into Metallurgical Coke. Metallurgical coke is used as an important reducing agent and energy source in blast furnaces for the production of pig iron and steel. Thus, the supply of Coal Tar is correlated to Pig Iron production, which in turn is driven by steel production. Coal Tar is considered as a by-product of the metallurgical coke and steel industries and is sold to Coal Tar distillers. The Coal Tar distillation business can be grouped into two categories, the primary coal tar distillation business ("primary distillation") and the processing of selected co-products of primary distillation into more refined products ("downstream"). Primary distillation products include CTP, which represents approximately half of the distillation yield, naphthalene oil and aromatic oils. While the graphite and chemical industries are among the end users of CTP, approximately 80% of the world production of CTP is consumed in the Aluminum smelting process. For every 10 tons of Aluminum, approximately 1 ton of CTP is consumed in the Aluminum production process. The World CTP production for 2012 is estimated to be about 6 million tons, China and North America accounts for approximately 54% of the total World production. World CTP Production - 2012 Estimated

Chaina 49% Middle East/Africa 6%

CIS 6% South America 3% Canada 2% Europe 6% Asia (Ex. China) 11% US 17%

We estimate that over 130 Oil Refineries world-wide produce and sell GPC in varying forms and qualities. Sale of GPC generally do not constitute a material portion of Refiners' revenues (typically about 1 to 2% of their total sales). The price of GPC depends on the quality and the market in which it will be used, and is largely driven by market supply and demand. A refinery typically realizes higher prices for GPC used in the production of Anode Grade CPC than that used in Industrial Grade CPC. However, the quality of GPC (whether anode-grade or industrial grade) cannot be modified by Refinery and the same largely depends on the type of crude being refined. In general CPC and GPC prices move in parallel, as a result, CPC producers typically pass through GPC cost increases and decreases to their customers. However, there could be a timing lag for CPC prices to adjust to changes in GPC prices, as the frequency

Demand for Aluminum is one of the most important determinants of CPC and CTP demand. According to the recent industry estimates, world demand for primary Aluminum totaled approximately 46.7 million metric tons in 2012 and is expected to grow to approximately 59.0 million metric tons by 2016, representing a compounded annual growth rate of 6.0%. The growth in the demand for Aluminum is expected to be driven by increasing use of light weight materials in many key industries such as transportation (including aerospace and automobiles), construction, packaging and consumer electronics. In line with the growing demand, even the global primary Aluminum production is also expected to grow at an average CAGR of 6.1% between 2012 and 2016, this production growth is expected to be met through the addition of new

enter into additional longer-term supply contracts and expanding our use of NTACs. In the Coal Tar distillation industry, Ruetgers aims to use its leading market position and track record to selectively grow distillation capacities in its core markets. Ruetgers intends to continue investing in its facilities and developing its processes to further improve its operational reliability to grow its primary coal tar distillation activities in line with increases in customer demand. To grow its CTP output, Ruetgers entered into the Russian JV, from which we expect to gain additional coal tar distillation capacity of 300,000 metric tons per year in 2014. We intend to leverage the Russian JV, which is logistically well-positioned to supply the Middle East, to provide the combined company with a reliable source of Coal Tar to expand market share in the Middle East, which is experiencing a steady increase in the demand for pitch. Pursue higher-margin downstream product offerings and develop new products We believe the scale of the combined company will provide us with a platform to continue to develop higher-margin downstream products. In addition to providing us with a long-term and reliable source of coal tar supply, the Russian JV offers us the flexibility to increase the volume of co-products resulting from primary coal tar distillation, which we plan to use to increase the production of higher-margin downstream products. The combined company intends to support process improvement and the development of new, higher margin products and technologies through its research and development initiatives, with a focus on performance, sustainability and utilization of alternative raw materials. Continue to opportunistically grow in emerging markets We intend to continue to opportunistically expand our footprint in emerging economies, including Asia. Aluminum smelting has grown substantially in China and India. The Acquisition better positions the combined company for expansion into these emerging markets. We believe the ability to supply our customers with multiple products helps solidify our existing relationships with Aluminum Smelters. Increase profitability and free cash flow generation We believe that we have demonstrated an ability to remain profitable throughout the recent economic cycle and at varying levels of Aluminum production and CPC capacity utilization. In particular, we believe our technology development, including our patented ICE technology, allows us to increase sales volumes and reduce costs as non-anode GPC alternatives are cheaper and more readily available than traditional anode grade GPC. RISKS AND CONCERNS The key limitations to increasing the supply of CPC include the location of suitable new sites to facilitate production in close proximity to refiners and the quantity of available suitable quality GPC. GPC is a by-product of the oil refining process and is not produced with a view toward meeting the supply needs of the World's Aluminum or Titanium producers. Changes in the economics of oil refiners over the past 15 to 20 years have resulted in a trend toward refining heavier and more Sour Crude oils. While refiners continue to build refining capacity (and therefore indirectly GPC production capacity), the worldwide supply of traditional Anode Grade GPC is expected to grow at lesser pace as refineries processing more Sour Crude oil, which results in lower quality, or fuel grade,GPC. As a result, global CPC producers have experienced and may continue to experience a reduction in the availability of the quality raw materials they require. To economically and efficiently support growth in the Aluminum industry, Rain Group believes that smelters and calciners will need to continue to work together to expand the existing quality specifications for CPC, and allow for more non-traditional alternative coke blends in the Anode Grade CPC production process. RCC's patented ICE technology is one method of utilizing lower cost coke inputs in CPC blends without compromising the product quality. The principal consumers of Rain Group's CPC and CTP are primary Aluminum smelters. Although the Aluminum industry has experienced growth on a long-term basis, there may be cyclical periods of weak demand which could result in decreased primary Aluminum production. Rain Group' sales have historically declined during such cyclical periods of weak global demand for Aluminum.

The Indian Cement industry with about 300 million tons of capacity is the world's second largest cement producer. The demand for Cement, being a derived demand, depends primarily on the general industrial activity, real estate activity and investment in the infrastructure sector. Indian Cement industry is globally competitive because the industry has witnessed healthy trends such as continuous technology up gradation and cost controlling. Due to the sub dued operating profits, as result of lower capacity utilizations, capped cement prices and constantly raising input costs, some of the companies have deferred their expansion plans. With strong demand coupled with limited capacity additions, the Cement capacity utilizations are expected to slowly improve after FY2013 and should see 80% mark by FY 15.

OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS Opportunities Despite apprehensions about the impact of inflation and slowdown in Industrial production and overall economic scenario, the demand prospect for the Cement sector remains positive with the growth in Infrastructure, Housing, Roads, Ports, Power, Urban Housing and Irrigation Projects. The Government's thrust towards Infrastructure development, which accounts for about 20% of total Indian Cement consumption, is expected to lead the infrastructure spending of more than 10% of Indian GDP by 2017.

The Indian Cement industry has witnessed massive capacity additions of approximately 100 million tons, CAGR of 13.6%, during FY 2009-2012, the growth in capacity addition is disproportionately high in South India. During the same period of FY 2009-2012, South Indian Cement Capacity has increased by approximately 55 million tons, representing a CAGR of 22.5%. This has resulted in significant pressure on price realization and also on capacity utilizations. Although the estimated capacity utilization, for FY 2012-2013, on Pan India basis is still around 75% levels, South India's capacity utilization is estimated to fall below 60% level. Energy (Power and fuel) constitute more than 40% of the total operating costs of Cement industry. Rise in electricity prices coupled with hikes in Diesel and Domestic Coal Prices are causing constant increase

in Energy costs. Further the severe energy shortage in the state of Andhra Pradesh is dampening the production and forcing the use of Diesel Generators and other high cost power sources. Further the increased dependence on imported coal and pet coke as an alternative to the domestic coal is exposing the Indian Cement industry to price fluctuations in International markets and the depreciation of rupee is also resulting in higher costs thus adding further pressure on profitability. Considering these market conditions and continued excess capacity in South India, the management continues to concentrate on controlling costs by improving the Cement to Clinker blend ratio and trying to improve the capacity utilization and blended realization by entering into new market regions in Karnataka and Maharashtra. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY The Company has adequate internal control systems and procedures with regards to purchase of stores, raw materials including components, plant and machinery equipment, sale of goods and other assets. The Company has clearly defined roles and responsibilities for all managerial positions and all operating parameters are monitored and controlled. The Company has appointed M/s. Ernst & Young Private Limited as the Internal Auditors and they will submit a report on a quarterly basis to the Audit Committee for its review and recommendation.
